URIAH HEEP
"Knocking At My Door"

I heard a sound
There was talking outside my door
I get up, turn on the light
There's a shadow across my floor
I go outside
Footsteps behind my feet
I turn around, there's no one there
Just the silence of a street

Oh, the fear of darkness was upon me
Too scared to scream, am I going insane?

They've been knocking at my door
They keep coming back for more
I don't know them but still they come

I'm back inside
There's nothing there I recognize
I used to dream, but this is real
And it's killing me inside
I hear a voice
The words are running round my head
I lay down, turn off the light
Is it something that I said

Oh, the fear of darkness was upon me
Too scared to scream, am I going insane?

They've been knocking at my door
They keep coming back for more
I don't know them but still they come
No place for hiding, no place to run

Tell me, when will this nightmare be over?
I begin to fear the sound of my own name

They've been knocking at my door
They keep coming back for more
I don't know them but still they come
No place for hiding, no place to run
